\’Parrot-Like Testimonies Of 6 Eye Witnesses, Humanly Impossible\’: Bombay High Court Acquits 20 Persons In Murder Case

The Bombay High Court, Nagpur Bench, has acquitted 20 persons in a murder case, citing identical and parrot-like version of all the star prosecution witnesses, calling it as \”humanly impossible\”.

A division bench of Justices Sunil Shukre and Pushpa Ganediwala, in a judgement last week, observed,
\”It\’s difficult to believe that six eyewitnesses deposed in an identical fashion with each and every minute detail. In our considered opinion, it\’s humanly impossible. Not a single independent witness (except police and medical witness) was examined even when it is not the case that the incident occurred in isolation or during late night hours.\”
